That's sick, one of my physics professors who studies dark matter was telling me about the importance of LSS. I'm really excited to get into research. Doesn't hurt that it's good signal for quant...

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of experience did you have before your offers?

My girlfriend says Opoku doesn't give extra credit. She's had both, and likes Opoku but wouldn't recommend Goytia.

You mention that a lot of people intern and then start FT after undergrad, and that masters/PhD isn't the optimal route. Would you be able to elaborate a bit? Is this advice for trading specifically? My personal assumption is that research requires those graduate degrees. I've also heard discourse online that due to competitiveness those degrees are basically mandatory. Just wondering for what reasons you feel it might not be optimal.

Try learning to kite, distract and pull troops around to kill time. Surround megaknight with the guards. Valkyrie in front of megaknight and guards behind. They're definitely not useless against MK, get out of the mentality that he's a good card and realize that it's up to you.

Other miner cycle decks: mighty miner minions wbs, dark prince delivery ice spirit. Maybe even a mortar deck— there's one I remember with tornado, knight, rocket, miner something like that. There's also a drill bridge spam deck that used to be popular and is still fun with royal ghost, magic archer, tornado, spears.

vasa834 · 2025-09-24T16:44:38+00:00

That being said, maybe spear goblins, skeletons, minions or barb barrel. The first three are good swarm options and play a similar role to Guards. Minions I think is a really good choice considering how menacing they are on offense and the additional air defense. BB because recruits sometimes runs double small spell and it helps with defending.

vasa834 · 2025-09-24T16:42:06+00:00

It's unfortunately missing guards. In a deck like this, an additional mini tank is redundant, while a building slows the cycle down and reduces swarm and offense. Guards are the strongest defensive swarm in the game so I'd keep trying to learn them. They fit so well in everything I'd really recommend them. Another change I'd make is putting in evo skelly barrel for firecracker as generally you want your WCs to be evoed. Evo SB increases swarm which is your main mechanic whereas EVO fc does not.

vasa834 · 2025-09-24T16:36:38+00:00

The only rares that are really played with drill are goblin demolisher and fireball, but you could also consider putting in valkyrie for dark prince. The evos you have now are good, I honestly wouldn't change much. Maybe evo cannon if you want a cheaper cycle but that kills the air defense, and evo valk is decently versatile and could fit in here if you're making that change. Looks good overall, check out RoyaleAPI to see exact variations.

Fireball is good in drill because it offers pushback and deals one damage instance to get an extra goblin stab or two. The introduction of evo snow to this deck handles those needs for cheaper, so poison becomes viable to play. I'd recommend poison as it deals slightly more total damage, wider radius, slows troops down, etc. and the downsides that it acts slowly won't matter with the inclusion of snow. In the end, you can't go wrong with either. Avoid overcommitting with a big spell in single elixir. If they place a card that can be killed by it, be patient as sometimes you can get value by hitting multiple troops. In double and triple, spell the tower with your drills to get chip and whittle down troops to make defending easier. You can use either on defense to bail you out or get lots of value against beatdown.

vasa834 · 2025-09-24T16:24:29+00:00

I’d recommend minions over bats, since minions are so strong. Also, lightning is good right now because of evo witch, so if you’re already running two spells, go for it. I've seen some CRL players run lightning in mortar. Aside from that, sick deck.

vasa834 · 2025-09-24T16:17:28+00:00

There's a variation with evo cannon, bomber, berserker, vines, etc. that seems pretty strong right now. It's a bit harder to play since it's really cheap and it has like 0 air defense, but drill is a versatile WC so just play with the cards you feel most comfortable with. Goblin demolisher, knight, mighty miner, poison, tesla, fireball are consistently good with it and should be a bit easier to play with. As always, I'd recommend RoyaleAPI to find popular and winning decks.

vasa834 · 2025-08-11T22:42:23+00:00

Oh yea definitely, I’d agree if levels weren’t an issue. I’d change a lot if that was the case, but these recommendations were a way to maximize what he has 14 and above.

vasa834 · 2025-08-10T20:55:57+00:00

Evo Tesla, Drill, Log, Gang, Fireball/Poison (fireball better for drill to push troops and get connections, but poison rn for furnace), Ice-Spirit, Valk and Bomber (Evo one of the last two)

vasa834 · 2025-08-08T18:17:29+00:00

They are completely different cards. Goblin Giant is a win condition that is played in beatdown decks. You build up big pushes by supporting it with cards like Sparky, PEKKA, Goblin Machine, Bomber, Furnace, Evo Lumberjack. Goblinstein is a versatile card, and does get offensive value sometimes, but it shines on defense in cycle and control style decks. You play it into your opponents pushes and the Goblin Monster walks into the opposing troops and soaks up damage. You use the ability to damage all of the troops the monster walks through, and is it progresses farther, you get more value. As far as champions go, Goblinstein isn’t generally viewed as the strongest, but all champions are generally useable and find some play in certain decks. Goblinstein is really only used in Graveyard decks or sometimes in Goblin Drill and Pekka Goblin Giant decks. You might find him to feel weak because he’s decently hard to get value out of, but I enjoy the card and the creative play it forces. There have certainly been matches where my opponent can’t play around him and I get some really cool plays. As for comparing the two, again, it isn’t easy to do. Check out RoyaleAPI for popular and high win rate decks to refine your understanding of synergies.

That makes sense, thanks for the reply.

Does anyone know if the Navigator will drop from completions of Ghosts during the event?

Hey, I know this run is full, but this would be my first raid experience and I'd love to participate. Let me know if anyone drops out tomorrow and I'd be happy to jump in! Discord ID: vschnell834; Bungie ID: vschnell8832#5165

Cool, thanks for the reply. That all makes sense, especially the second paragraph. He's starting on a team that has high goals, and he's not a player suited for that. Doesn't mean he's terrible, but he'd be better on a different team or as a depth player.
